Obviously this thing is useless in the daytime. Get this only if you play a lot of night games.. I do, so this is a very useful attachment for my Classic Army M15A4 SPC. It is very durable, and comes with a standard push button switch, and a pressure switch (I reccommend this) which you put on the handle of your gun, and squeeze to turn on, and release to turn off..It puts out a lot of light, making it easy to see where you are shooting. Some of my skeptic friends say that it gives away my position, but i find that instead of shooting at me, they shoot at whomever I put the light on. So even they take advantage of my light without even thinking about it. It can be attached and removed in seconds with the easy to use thumbscrews.. no tools required. The only slight problem is that sometimes the pressure switch can be a little sensitive, causing the light to go on if you grip your handle too hard without meaning to. But this is an all-around great light for night games, and gets my full reccommendation.

I purchased one of these for a Night Ops Skirmish we were having, and put it on my MP5. The Lithium Cell Battery lasts a very long time, and really puts a beam of light out there.

Last night, I was playing against two of my team members(2vs me), with one of them using my Rail Claw/Tac Light on his personal MP5, because I have yet to purchase rails for my new G36K. I was laying flat on my back "Blending" with my environment, when from out side of the woods(about 200 Feet infront of me), I get flashed dead in my eyes. I was thinking,"Shiet! I've been spotted", but it turns out he didn't even see me(Camo still helps at night). The whole point of me rambling on with my war story was that, from two hundred feet away, I still had to squint, and saw spots after he let go of the pressure switch.

Judging from my personal use, I would say that this Tac light is good up to 75 yards with Good, Clean, Crisp Visability. After that, you get a "Grey Zone of UnCertainty).

Another thing, You might be thinking,"Won't you be visable when you fire you gun?" The answer is,
It depends on if you know how to use a light. The lense its self on the gun is built for a forwars projection. If you keep it focused in on Spotting mode instead of a flood setting, 90% of the light is focused forward, with the other 10% remaining flooding to the sides. The best thing to do during night ops, is Guerrilla Warfare.

Wait for your enemies to be practically walking over you. Then you pop up, Flash them, and open fire. Tac Lights are just as effective as your gun when it comes to offensive capability. The intensity of the lght can disorient a group of people, not to mention mess with there eye focuse creating "Splotches" when they try to aim.

All in All, its 30 dollars. BUY IT, regardless on if you use it alot or not. If your gun is going to collect dut, make it so it collects dust lokking like something out of a Rainbow Six game. I payed fifty, yes FIFTY for the same one, because I needed it it ASAP, and could not wait 2 days to get it from Shorty. The light has sooo many Pros, and so few cons.

CONS:
Batteries cost a little more than your average Value Meal(worth it)
Adds about 1 lb. to your gun. (Not a CON in my Book)
It hurts when you bash your mouth on it, because you forgot you mounted it on your top rail to add a laser to ur Claw mount....>_<

P.S. I HOPE THIS HELPS! -Bagwsp out.

I BOUGHT THIS LIGHT BECAUSE MY FREINDS AND I SEEM TO PLAY A LOT OF NIGHT GAMES AND IT ALWAYS WORKS LIKE IT DID WHEN I PULLED IT OUT OF THE BOX. NOW YOU NEVER HAVE TO TAPE ANOTHER FLASHLIGHT UNDER YOUR GUN BARREL AGAIN. I THINK WE HAVE ALL DONE THAT A FEW TIMES, BUT NOT ANYMORE. IT HAS A BUILT IN UNIVERSAL MOUNT SO I CAN SWITHCH IT FROM GUN TO GUN WHENEVER I NEED TO. DURRING ONE NIGHT GAME ME AND MY FRIEND SWITHCHED IT FROM MY MP5/G18c TO HIS M87 SHOTGUN IN A MATTER OF SECONDS WITHOUT ANY TOOLS. THIS IS THE BEST LIGHT YOU CAN GET.

Hope This Helped,

One of the must haves if you are playing night games. This lights price is cheap and is worth alot. If you play at night this thing comes in handy. Even in the daytime it adds kinda of a wonder about your gun with the extra attachments on it. Put this with tactics operations at night you will have the upper hand. I have seen lights go for hundreds of dollars. So if you dont feel like paying that heafty price purchase this item.

NIGHTIME!!! OOOOOO well if your playing at night then why not get this? It clamps on easily, it's bright as the heavens and has a preasure toggle switch, obviously. It is also very durable because as you can see it is made of metal. However when buying this you must also consider 2 things: 1.) although you can see them with it on they can deffinetly see you as can basically everybody on the field or arena. 2.) If you are spending 30 dollars on a flashlight you better be playing a lot in the dark or you could just tape a flashlight for those accosional dark games. Overall: if you are playing in the dark quite a bit then buy it. It is sturdy and won't let you down and don't forget to always have you finger off the switch. Many time's i have accidentally pressed down the switch when i had creeped up to another teams base and i was lit up with BB's. thats all for now P CE
